Horned Serpent (Ilvermorny)

Horned Serpent is the House of scholars. Isolt Sayre, the founder of Ilvermorny, named her house for her friendship with a horned serpent and her ability to understand Parseltongue. Horned Serpent represents the mind of the wizard, since Isolt’s passion for learning has been preserved in Horned Serpent.

Natural AcademicsBecause of Horned Serpent’s reputation for studiousness, parallels are often drawn with the Ravenclaw house at Hogwarts, but Hogwarts and Ilvermorny houses are not equivalent to each other.

While it would be common to find a Horned Serpent student at the top of their class, you’re just as likely to find them heading out to obtain first-hand practical experience. A certain appreciation of nature is another notable trait of Horned Serpent.
